An interdisciplinary primer in African studies
Ishmael I. Munene · 2011
על הספר
Many African studies scholars are caught by surprise at the superficial knowledge that students bring to their classrooms; it is a knowledge that has little analytical framework or historical context and is shaped by mass media and neighborhood folklore. Mitigating these effects requires access to a college-level introductory textbook on Africa covering a gamut of themes that are relevant today. This textbook does not romanticize Africa, but addresses the persistent stereotypes that characterize issues about the region. It offers a refreshing examination of African issues from an Afrocentric perspective. Its interdisciplinary nature covers perspective sin African studies, geographical discussions, religion and spirituality, psychology, government and public policy, development, and decision-making styles as they relate to Africa -- Publisher description.
